Now that the "Ladybuds" are appearing on my vines, what is the fertility span
of a "Mrbud" after one opens?
This morning we had our first rain here in many weeks. It should help.
Weather has been in the 80-90 F range with 60-65 at night.
I dispatched a plant that had leaves that were yellow.
I have 3 left. Still too many! Another will go within a week.
One plant wants the patch to itself. Will have to trim some of the spurious
branches that are developing. First thing in the morning, about 6:00-6:30
am, I check for new blossoms on all three.
It should be an interesting week coming up!
This is my first year w AGs. Some of my neighbors probably think I am crazy.
I was asked why I didn't grow tomatoes.
Very few insects of any kind in my yard-except mosquitoes. I think they
breed in one of the buried plastic gutter drains that exit at the back of
my lot. One of them seems to always have some water in it.
